Chapter 268: The Ballad of Yellow Water (2-in-1)

The zombies were moving forward at a normal pace, and Xia and Qin Mingyue quickly caught up with the tail of the thousand-person team of zombies, less than ten meters away from the last two zombies, and the zombies realized that there was human prey behind them, and turned their heads to kill.

"It still looks like it's biting." I said in disappointment that the cold had frozen all the zombies.

"It should be that the sense of smell has been severely disturbed by the low temperature." Ling Ge analyzed that the zombies we encountered before, face to face, basically within 100 meters, they could smell our existence.

In the summer, the two of them didn't fight, and after killing a few zombies, they ran back, and the test mission was completed anyway.

When they ran a hundred meters or so, the zombies stopped chasing, lowered their heads and sniffed the corpses of their companions, caught up with the big cloth team, and continued to hurry.

"It's always a chance," I nodded, "If all the zombies are heading south, then as long as we keep going north and north, can we finally reach an area where there are no zombies at all?" โ€

"Goose Country?" Xiaoxiao asked.

"It shouldn't be that far, maybe, just cross the Yellow Water River, right?" Ling Ge said.

I don't know if I can avoid SB, but as long as all the ordinary zombies move south, presumably the fourth-order flying corpses will not be attached to the northland, and they will have to move south, otherwise they will have no puppets to use, and they will fight alone, and they still can't do anything to us, as for the breeding plan of the flying corpses, perhaps, they can only wait for the next year, when the spring flowers bloom, right?

"Ling Ge, follow the original route for the time being, continue to walk in the northwest direction," I said, "along the way, send a few more teams, scatter to reconnoitre, until twelve o'clock at noon, if we can be sure that all the zombies are moving south, then, let's change the direction and go due north!" โ€

At nine o'clock, the team set off, Ling Ge was more concerned about this matter, after demarcating the route in case the dispersion could not be connected, he directly divided the general number of people and went out to investigate, and at half past eleven, several teams sent out followed back one after another, and all the intelligence showed that the zombies from all over the country were heading south, and the direction of the south was highly consistent with the meridian, probably because they had animal-like magnetic poles in their brains.

There is also a useful information, Lian Ye detachment encountered several third-order zombies, all of them eight-clawed fierce third-order zombie beasts, I thought there would be a vicious battle, clinker, as soon as the two sides exchanged fire, more than 20 third-order zombies on the other side ran away with their tails between their legs, and they had no intention of fighting at all.

"The mucous membrane on the surface of the third-order zombie should be more afraid of the cold!" Ling Ge laughed.

The last team returned, at eleven thirty-five, I decisively changed direction, got off the highway, followed the road, and pushed directly to the north, anyway, the surrounding area is all the big plains, Qianmo traffic, you can travel in any direction, all the zombies are to the south, then if we go directly to the north, in terms of probability, the zombies will be the least.

At 12 o'clock, the dog scouts in front reported that they found zombies, two kilometers away.

Ling Ge climbed on the roof of the car, looked at it with a telescope, said that the scale was very large, and asked me if I would fight.

I thought about it for a moment and asked the team to get off the roadbed, hide in the wild grass (actually a wheat field) next to it, and get 50 meters away from the road.

We brought a lot of cannon eggs, but there weren't many bullets and we couldn't afford a lot of consumption.

Not long after, the front troops of the zombies arrived, right under our noses, passing through in a mighty way, sure enough, there were many, there were more than 3,000 heads, some of which were student zombies, wearing the school uniform of Fuyang No. 2 Middle School.

"Fuyang?" Yan Lili frowned and thought for a while, "I remember that there is a Junyong railway station there, which can lead directly to the north." โ€

"The train station is still evenly divided?" I asked.

"Of course, the railway station is fully enclosed, including most of the lines, and it is closed, if there are no zombies in the station when the zombies break out, then it should be safe now, because although it is used, it is not usually used, and there are no materials in it." Yan Lili explained.

"I know this," Ling Ge also said, "For example, when the southern brigade goes to the north to participate in the exercise, a lot of heavy equipment cannot go by road, so they will take the special railway line." โ€

"That's right, that's it." Yan Lili nodded.

"Is there a train, in the station?" I asked.

"Fuyang is a small city, but in terms of everything, it is a big base station, and there should be a standing freight train." Ling Ge said.

I nodded, try it, if you can use the train, wouldn't it be better, although our fleet is also good, but walking on the conventional highway, there will always be zombies going south, delaying the progress, the train line, even if you encounter obstacles, it's a big deal to get off the train to fight, open up and continue to the north, and then a little, take the train line, don't worry about getting lost!

"Follow the way they came and find the past, it should be Fuyang." I led the team back on the road, along the way of the zombie army that just crossed the border, went in the opposite direction, walked not far, and encountered another wave of zombies, similarly, there are also zombies in the school uniform of Fuyang Middle School, is it the same as Maotanchang, Fuyang is also a college entrance examination place?

The closer I got to the city, the more often I encountered zombies, and I still had a question, why did they gather and go in waves? Zombies are not social "animals", just because of the high population density of the city, so when you meet them in the city, you feel like a group of people, in remote places, you often encounter lonely zombies, but it can't be said that they are solitary animals, because ordinary zombies have no territorial awareness, they just wander aimlessly, in the final analysis, they are not "animals", but dead things, only zombies above the third order are real animals.

At half past twelve o'clock in the afternoon, finally, we arrived at the boundary line of Fuyang City.

There was no need to go in, after Yan Lili identified the direction, she directly led the convoy to the suburbs, along a deserted and dilapidated road, and it only took half an hour to find the Junyong railway station.

It's like an abandoned station where no one has been here for a long time, and the station is covered with tall green grass, and even the flat platform is covered with a mess of plants.

But this also shows one point: this is a piece of unexplored virgin land in the zombie era!

Ling Ge found an inconspicuous direction, asked Qin Mingyue to cut a hole in the fence, and the convoy went in turn, Ling Ge used wire to re-seal the fence, cover it with canvas, and eliminate the rut marks on the ground nearby, this is not to prevent zombies, but to prevent SB's pursuers, I don't know if they are still tracking.

After entering the train station, take a short lunch break.

But this is relatively close to the city of Fuyang, and for safety reasons, I did not allow a fire, so everyone should eat dry food.

I still couldn't act quickly, so I could only sit in command of the Chinese army, Yan Lili took people to the garage of the station, and sure enough, I found that several locomotives were stored in it, as well as some of the flatbed train cars that transported armored vehicles.

There is a "dock" where we can drive our car directly and attach it to the flat plate with a rope.

The front of the car, tested and ready to use!

At two o'clock in the afternoon, all the vehicles and personnel got on the train, and the heavy weapons were placed on the flat plates at the front and rear of the car, a total of twelve trains, pure, armored trains!

But we were not in a hurry to set off, along the train track, but there was no food supply, we had to collect enough supplies nearby, load them on the train and take them away.

"It's not advisable to drive at night, so let's start tomorrow morning." Ling Ge suggested.

"Yes." I stayed behind to defend the station, and Ling Ge took the elite soldiers and strong generals to go out to Fuyang City to "hunt".

Although most of the zombies in Fuyang City have gone south, the zombies north of Fuyang are also gathering in Fuyang City, using this as a transit station, and then heading south, so the city has always maintained a high density of mobile zombies, which has had a great impact on our collection and supply work.

However, in the evening, Ling Ge and the others still relied on their superb hunting skills to get back enough food and water for the entire team for four days, as for fuel, there is it in the station, high-quality diesel is used, and there are some gasoline for cars, I asked my cousin to take away all the gasoline barrels that can be taken away, gasoline is a good thing, it can be used as fuel when it is poured into a car, and it can be used as a weapon when it is put into a beer bottle, it is really cold, and it can also be used as firewood!

That night, everyone was very excited, because they all knew that this might be our last night in the south, and at the speed of the train, if everything went well, we should be able to cross the Huangshui River tomorrow night, and even, we can go directly to Jingshi City!

"Tonight's defense, especially cautious, the more this time, the easier it is to get into trouble." I instructed Ling Ge to say that for the sake of safety, everyone should not rest in the station, but all of them should rest on the arranged train, and in case of any danger, start the train at any time and escape.

However, all night, there was no.

After this night, the weather became even colder, but fortunately, Xiaoxiao found some quilts from the warehouse (not for people, it should be a quilt reserved to protect the equipment, it is rough, but it is real cotton inside, very thick), with heating facilities, there are no new cases of frostbite.

At half past five the next morning, as soon as the weather was shining, I started the train and drove it myselfโ€”no need to teach, driving a train is easier than driving a car!

By six o'clock, the train had been far away from Fuyang City, walking on a field, as far as the eye could see, there were no zombies or other enemies to harass, although it was very cold, the team members were cheering, standing on the flatbed, their hearts were far away, leading to singing!

I handed the train to Yan Lili, climbed on the roof of the car (the speed was not fast, it was bearable), and sat side by side with Ling Ge, looking at the children behind me.

"Like, all of a sudden, I was relieved!" Ling Ge sighed, his shoulders drooped, and he leaned gently into my arms.

"I hope I've been fighting for so long, I've been running away for so long, and I'm tired." I say.

"It's not because of you!" Ling Ge complained, "If you hadn't insisted on saving Jiangbei Women's High School, how could you have fallen into today's situation with our gang of people from Yangshan Island?" โ€

"If we didn't have them, maybe we wouldn't be alive today." I smiled and said that although their role was limited, the advantage of having more people was still reflected in several key time nodes.

"I'm just a little confused," Ling Ge got up and looked at me suspiciously, "The battle at the cave base was confusing...... It stands to reason that ......"

"You don't think SB did it?" I asked.

Ling Ge shook his head: "The person must be SB's, I know a few people in it, I just can't figure it out, we have all escaped so far, why is SB still obsessed with us?" There are no live broadcasts anymore, what is their original intention and purpose of eliminating us? โ€

"Perhaps, it's just a whim of Zhao Mai, right?" I guess that, with her unpredictable personality, it's not impossible.

"That's not enough," Ling Ge laughed, "A husband and wife for one day, there are still 100 days of kindness, and you two have only been a few days, and you have become enemies?" โ€

I pouted: "I really don't treat her as an enemy, it's their wishful thinking, what are you going to do!" What can I do? You can only fight. โ€

Ling Ge sighed and shook her head again, it was estimated that she couldn't imagine what was going on on Wuji Island, and as we went deep into the Northland this time and completely got rid of SB's control, perhaps, it would be an eternal mystery......

"When did you join SB?" I suddenly rang out and asked Ling Ge.

"Can you not say it?" Ling Ge frowned and stared at me with resentment.

"After all, I've believed that you are a special attack for a long time, and since you are a member of SB, then the background you told me about before is all fake?" I laughed and said, until now, in my subconscious, I still feel that the person who organized Ling Ge's coffin is the embodiment of justice!

Ling Ge raised his eyebrows, took off his coat, put it on with me, looked at the bleak sun in the south, and didn't speak again.

The journey went smoothly, surprisingly well, and soon, we arrived at the next big station: Bozhou Station.

Because it is a dedicated route, our train did not enter the station, but passed by Bozhou from a line behind the station.

Looking at it from a distance, there are many zombies in Bozhou Station, and they are also gathering, heading south by the way.

In fact, our speed is quite slow, before the railway station to make a national railway route map, originally according to my idea, before dark can get to Jizhou, but in fact, the train on the map climbed like a snail 10,000 times slower, until noon, we arrived in Shangqiu City, from the Huangshui River, there is a long distance!

"Would you like to give the train a break?" I asked Yan Lili, who was driving.

"No, right? You probably don't need to rest for this thing, just go away," Yan Lili said, "However, we have to pass through part of Shangqiu City in front of us, so remind everyone, don't be careless." โ€

Ling Ge passed on the order, and all the students did not toss, and honestly returned to the cars on their flatbeds, closed the doors and windows, and the big bubble was ready.

Sure enough, it was going to pass through the city.

This Shangqiu is a bit strange, there are walls around, it should be an ancient capital, but I don't remember, which dynasty is related to this city.

As soon as the train entered the city, the zombies outside the guardrails on both sides of the railroad clearly noticed our moving thing, and as they headed south, they began to stare at us, ready to cross the fence and attack us.

"Speed up a bit, Lily, there's too many zombies here." I'm in the cab, whispering.

"No way, it's not big, it's an important transportation hub, a highway hub, all the way over, have you found it? Zombies also walk on demons, rather than heading directly to the south. โ€

"Nonsense, what do they go without walking?" I smiled bitterly, this little bit of wisdom, zombies still exist, not to mention, they are under the command of high-level zombies, acting in unison.

Fortunately, the scope of the city is not large, and when the train was about to pass through Shangqiu City, I saw a large stone standing next to the railroad tracks, on which were engraved a few words with a red pen: Qingqi Daji fought with this place.

"What does that mean?" I asked Ling Ge.

Ling Ge tilted his head and thought about it, then shook his head: "I don't know, could it be that this is the capital of the ancient Shang Dynasty...... That's not right, isn't the Shang Dynasty singing in Chao? โ€

"It's not far from here, it's all in He Nan anyway." Yan Lili said that she is much more familiar with this piece than Fairy Tale City.

"The ancient Central Plains is the land of culture."

"Further north, is it the land of Qilu?" I asked, it's also a land of culture.

"No," Xiaoxiao looked at the map, "Let's not take that line, just go straight to Shijiazhuang." โ€

Smoothly passing through this ancient capital, there is no larger station in front, and the railway line is offset to the north, heading northwest, but it doesn't matter, the whole general direction is still north.

As for four o'clock in the afternoon, the train arrives at a larger city, KFC, the one without C, the fast food city that is often jokingly called KFC.

It is also bypassed, and there is no need to pass through the city, but when you have to pass through the Huangshui River, you still inevitably enter the city.

Originally, I planned to have a glimpse of the beautiful scenery of the Huangshui River, but when the train went up to the railway bridge, I looked down and was dumbfounded, the Huangshui River under the bridge is no longer yellow, but has become green, and it is still very clear.

"I didn't expect that the Central Plains would also be lucky enough to see the yellow water freeze, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing!" Ling Ge said with a smile, she said that she had been in KF for a while before, but I didn't believe it and didn't know if it was true or not.

After crossing the Huangshui River and then to the north, it was suddenly desolate, and it was almost dark, so I decided to stop and fix it, not because the train needed to rest, but because I was worried that it would not be safe to drive at night - it would definitely not work without turning on the lights, but once the lights were turned on, it would be very easy to attract the siege of zombies!

Ling Ge got on the roof of the car, combined with the map, found a safe wilderness, and parked the car.

Everyone was also tired from a day's ride on the open-top train, so they got off the train and camped around both sides of the tracks.

However, after dinner, something went wrong
